One of these is a Linuxnode, connected via KISS to a node and via LAN to our router server. This is the question: would you run JUST Linuxnode 0.3.2 on a Pentium 133, 32MB RAM? Please note I don't need firewall or any kind of protection, nothing more (my router server already provide this). This would reduce the work of this poor hardware! I'm asking this because, reading some bug reports and security exploit on the web, it seems like Linuxnode uses a big amount of memory and resources to administrate multiple telnet connection. Any suggestion/comment appreciated (and QSLed by the buro, would say not so far away from here). Alessio, IZ4EFN
